Pasadena Parade 2009

It was a dreary and rainy morning as we prepared our float for the Pasadena Parade. We told most of our volunteers with young children to stay home rather than get their children sick. We scrambled to rig a tarp over the float to stay dry.

And then....

At 2pm when the parade began, the sun came out, the rain stopped and it turned into a gorgeous day.

The Citizens for Jeremiah Chiappelli walked in the Pasadena Parade from Tick Neck Park to George Fox Middle School. Lots of people came out to watch the parade. Lots of groups walked in the parade. All three of the incumbent delegates were present. All three of the Democratic challengers were present. Yes, Justin Towles is jumping into the race and he makes three.

I had a great time shaking hands and meeting the people along the way. The people were very supportive. The kids were supportive too, but I think they were more interested in the candy.

The best part of the parade was my wife riding a segway dressed as a superhero. Protect the Future. You don't have to be a super-hero, but it helps.
